See 12 incredible photos of the Northern Lights over NYC last night
Last night, likely thanks to a geomagnetic storm that could have affected our communications systems, New Yorkers were treated to the beautiful spectacle that is the Northern Lights.
Also known as Aurora Borealis, the celestial event turned the sky all shades of pink, orange and blue—adding even more flair to our stunning skyline.
Here are some amazing pictures that city dwellers snapped last night:

Never would I have thought I'd be able to see the northern lights in Brooklyn let alone get a decent photo of it.
